TEGUCIGALPA, Feb 1 (NNN-PRENSA LATINA) — The first two flights of the US Army with Honduran deportees has arrived in this country, as part of the questioned immigration policies of President Donald Trump.
It is about a little more than a hundred citizens detained at the US southern border, the Honduran Minister of Foreign Affairs, Enrique Reina confirmed the day before, to the media.
“We will accept for the first time two military flights of the new scheme launched by the Trump administration,” the foreign minister, said, alluding to the massive deportations of migrants ordered by the US President.
The head of Honduran diplomacy explained that, unlike the normal flights of nationals expelled by the United States, who are notified 48 hours in advance, in the case of the military flights they are notified just 12 hours in advance.
The idea is to set in motion a protocol so that the compatriots do not return to the country in undignified conditions, Reina, said, who pointed out that the Honduran government proposed to the Washington embassy in Tegucigalpa the contracting of charter flights if necessary.
It is a humanitarian issue, “we cannot have people held in conditions that are a bit complex, because it is a very new measure being applied by the Trump administration”, he added. — NNN-PRENSA LATINA
